UGA’s Andrews signs and Mason gets a tryout

Georgia quarterback Hutson Mason and center David Andrews weren’t among their teammates drafted in this year’s NFL draft, but each has a chance to impress an NFL team.

Andrews signed with the New England Patriots as an undrafted free agent, and Mason has a tryout scheduled with the Miami Dolphins.

Five Bulldogs from last season’s team were selected in the draft that ended Saturday, led by star running back Todd Gurley. The St. Louis Rams chose him with the 10th pick of the first round. Others chosen: Chris Conley (Chiefs, second round), Ramik Wilson (Chiefs, fourth round), Damian Swann (Saints, fifth round) and Amarlo Herrera (Colts, sixth).
